No Way People Find Cultivation Difficult, Right? Chapter 153

On the deserted mountain.

As the space distorted, Wang Minghao's master, couldn't help but keep his guard up.

He had contacted the Fiendcelestial Cult and they agreed to meet there.

To be honest, the person who got kidnapped was the Tenth Princess of Great Xia Dynasty, and once the word about it got out, he would die a horrible death.

Now that there was a sudden distortion in space, the old man in black, who was wearing a bamboo hat, naturally kept his guard up.

He was unsure who it was so he kept his guard up.

Soon, as the spatial fluctuations disappeared, a figure not far away appeared in front of them.

It was a handsome young man who was refined and had an extraordinary aura. Dressed in a white robe, he looked poised.

“It's you.”

Not far away, Wang Minghao exclaimed after he saw clearly who the person was.

“Who's there?”

Wang Minghao's master also chimed in with a wary gaze, all ready to battle.

“Master, he's Ye Ping.”

Wang Minghao really didn't expect that Ye Ping would suddenly appear in front of him.

To be honest, since his failure in the Qingzhou Sword Dao Meet, Wang Minghao had been thinking about Ye Ping all the time. He felt that the reason for his failure was not that Ye Ping's Sword Dao was superior to his own, but his physical body was stronger.

After all, when Ye Ping swung a sword, he could not resist at all. It was no longer about his attainment in the Sword Dao, but the difference in realm and physical body.

Hence, in order to be able to defeat Ye Ping, Wang Minghao refined his physical body at all costs and went through a lot of suffering. Now that he had condensed a treasure body, Wang Minghao kept looking forward to meeting Ye Ping.

He wanted to defeat Ye Ping and regain his pride.

However, he did not expect to meet Ye Ping so soon. It was really… fate.

“Ye Ping?”

Wang Minghao's master was also a little surprised. Some time ago, as Wang Minghao returned with a look of dejection, he knew that Wang Minghao had lost, but he didn't expect him to have lost to a nameless nobody.

What surprised him even more was that according to what Wang Minghao said, Ye Ping had defeated him with a single sword, leaving him with no means to retaliate.

Hence, he thought that Ye Ping's Sword Dao was not very strong and that he must have defeated Wang Minghao by virtue of his strength. Hence, he tried to strengthen Wang Minghao's physical body.

The reason being, he knew that Ye Ping had become a demon in his disciple's heart. If Wang Minghao did not really defeat Ye Ping once, then this demon would get bigger and bigger, and he might then slip into obsession and go astray.

He didn't expect Ye Ping to show up on his own accord. At the thought of this, he spoke up.

“Minghao, since it is destined, take the opportunity to end this karma. Don't let him leave alive.”

His voice was cold and indifferent.

He did not know why Ye Ping suddenly appeared here, but the only thing he knew was that Ye Ping had witnessed that scene. Regardless if there was any feud between them, Ye Ping had to die because he had seen something he shouldn't have.

“Yes.”

Wang Minghao, who was standing next to the Tenth Princess of the Great Xia Dynasty, immediately responded. His eyes were full of zeal and a battle intent.

Not far away, when he gradually saw the surrounding scenery, Ye Ping recovered from the shock.

Spatial teleportation would allow one to slip into confusion for a short period of time. Ye Ping was fine as he managed to recover from the shock in just a few breaths.

However, in the next moment, Ye Ping was a little surprised.

He saw someone he knew.

“Fellow Daoist Wang?”

When Ye Ping saw Wang Minghao, Ye Ping couldn't help but seem delighted.

He really didn't expect that he could actually meet Wang Minghao.

To be honest, the world of immortal cultivation was vast and boundless, and Qingzhou was large too. Sometimes, it was almost impossible to meet some acquaintances by chance.

He had simply casually teleported, but he didn't expect to meet Wang Minghao.

Everything about Wang Minghao was still fresh in Ye Ping's memory. Back then at the Qingzhou Sword Dao Meet, he managed to defeat Wang Minghao with his sword.

However, when he saw Wang Minghao, Ye Ping even got reminded of another person, Li Changye.

Ye Ping didn't feel that guilty towards Wang Minghao, but he was full of guilt and remorse towards Li Changye.

“Fellow Daoist Wang, why are you here? Are you here to tread the woods? Who's this person? Your sister?”

Ye Ping, who had just finished teleporting, had not completely recovered yet, and at the same time, he was also glancing at the woman in green beside Wang Minghao, as well as the old man in black with a bamboo hat on his head.

“Hurry up and run. I'm the Tenth Princess of the Great Xia Dynasty, they want to capture me and hand me over to the Fiendcelestial Cult so as to use me to blackmail the Great Xia Dynasty.”

“Your Excellency, run, spread the word about this. Someone will come to my rescue.”

At this moment, the Tenth Princess of the Great Xia Dynasty couldn't help but shout and tell Ye Ping to run quickly lest he got into trouble. She thought that as long as Ye Ping escaped, someone would surely come to save her.

“The Tenth Princess of the Great Xia Dynasty?”

“Fiendcelestial Cult?”

For a moment, Ye Ping was a little confused as he still didn't quite understand.

However, at this moment, Wang Minghao suddenly rushed over, his physical body engulfed by crimson flames. As he ran over, black footprints appeared on the ground. They were the traces of burnt land.

Wang Minghao used the earth fire to refine his body and even condensed the Body of Earth Fire. The flame around him was just as strong as pill fire, and if cultivators of the same realm got into contact with it, they would turn into ashes immediately.

At this moment, Wang Minghao even drew his sword, after which a fire dragon appeared on the sword. He held the sword in his left hand and clenched his right fist while charging towards Ye Ping without any mercy.

In his eyes, Ye Ping was only a stepping stone in his life. Ye Ping was proud to have defeated him once, but Wang Minghao now planned to kill Ye Ping.

He did not have any feelings, nor did he have any pity for Ye Ping. Since he had to break through his realm, he had to kill Ye Ping to stabilize his Dao Heart.

“When I become a true supreme powerhouse, I will remember your name.”

Wang Minghao charged over and said coldly.

He was fast and his body was filled with flames. With the Flame Dragon Sword in his left hand and the earth fire seal in his right, Wang Minghao launched his most powerful attack. Even a cultivator at the perfected Foundation Establishment realm would not be able to resist the attack.

“Fellow Daoist Wang, can't we talk things over properly? Why do you want to kill me?”

Ye Ping frowned. Even till now, he was still unsure why Wang Minghao wanted to attack him as soon as he saw him.

Even if he was narrow-minded, he shouldn't go to such an extent.

In an instant, Ye Ping could not help but look at the woman in green who was near him. He then recalled what this woman had said, and in an instant, Ye Ping frowned even more.

It was not that Ye Ping did not believe what the woman in green said, but rather, the Tenth Princess of the Great Xia Dynasty was a supreme existence and the Great Xia Dynasty was also one of the five major dynasties of the world.

The Tenth Princess was naturally an elite too. Although she was not invincible, she wouldn't appear in such a place.

Hence, in the beginning, Ye Ping did not believe it and he simply felt that there must have been something else. However, Ye Ping now felt that he was in trouble.

‘Why do I encounter trouble whenever I teleport?'

Ye Ping was rather vexed.

During the previous teleportation, he was sent to a restricted land of a fiend cult and beaten up for no reason. Although he wasn't injured, he was in a bad mood.

Now that he was teleporting for the second time, the Tenth Princess of the Great Xia Dynasty was kidnapped. It was really…

Ye Ping sighed.

His eyes were filled with helplessness.

“Silly, how dare you let your imagination run wild at such a juncture? Are you really not afraid of dying?”

“It makes sense, actually. It's normal that you'd give up on retaliating and think more now that you're facing such a strong opponent like me.”

“Ye Ping, although you are dead, don't worry, I will remember your name. This is your glory and you will be remembered by the future supreme powerhouses.”

At this moment, when Wang Minghao was all set to kill Ye Ping who was in front of him, he discovered that Ye Ping was still thinking about something that made Wang Minghao furious.

However, Wang Minghao soon understood that the reason why Ye Ping was still thinking about nonsense was because Ye Ping did not have the ability to retaliate. In Wang Minghao's opinion, Ye Ping was giving up on himself.

Wang Minghao's eyes were full of joy and excitement. After a few arduous months, was he finally going to be free from this misery?

Not to mention Wang Minghao, even his master, as well as the Tenth Princess of Great Xia Dynasty, also thought that Ye Ping was dead meat at this point.

Ye Ping was only at the early stage of the Foundation Establishment realm while Wang Minghao's attacking power was too overbearing. With the combination of the Fire Dragon Sword Qi that spanned over tens of feet, as well as the terrifying Earth Fire Seal, even a perfected Foundation Establishment realm cultivator would have to die.

“Nonsense.”

However, as soon as Wang Minghao finished speaking, Ye Ping suddenly spoke up.

Roar!

Before Wang Minghao could react, Ye Ping immediately punched while his fists were shrouded in a golden light. His blood was surging and the void quaked.

Boom!

His golden fist blasted on top of the fire dragon Sword Qi. Right on the spot, the fire dragon shattered and Ye Ping's fist then collided with Wang Minghao's.

Roar!

The sound of the True Dragon filled the air, and like a True Dragon, Ye Ping was tyrannical and menacing. He was standing still like a mountain and after Wang Minghao got into a fight with Ye Ping, his hands became distorted while his white bone poked through his skin with blood.

Pfft.

In just an instant, Wang Minghao seemed to have bombarded a piece of divine iron as he instantly got thrown backwards by several hundred meters and his bones broke. Even his organs were horrifyingly damaged and he vomited blood in the air, just like how he did during the Qingzhou Sword Dao Meet back then.

Bang!

After landing on the ground, Wang Minghao did not feel any pain at all, but he felt extremely shocked. He stared wide-eyed at Ye Ping who was not far away.

He did not expect that Ye Ping's physical body was actually so terrifying.

Wang Minghao spat out fresh blood again. He had suffered a real serious injury but not the kind he did at the Sword Dao Meet. This time, it was fatal.

This time, Ye Ping might not have gone all out, but his strength was still hard and since he had sensed Wang Minghao's killing intent, he naturally wouldn't be polite to him.

However, the reason he did not kill him right away was not because Ye Ping took pity on him, but rather, Wang Minghao's master was still there and they would be in huge trouble if they killed Wang Minghao.

“Minghao.”

The old man in black with a bamboo hat hollered and immediately arrived in front of Wang Minghao.

In this instant, Ye Ping arrived beside the self-proclaimed Tenth Princess of Great Xia Dynasty, pulled her, and then ran away without saying a word.

The two figures instantly disappeared in the same place, and the old man in black with a bamboo hat did not waste any time.

Boom.

He raised his hand, and thirty-six flying swords shot out directly from the spot between his eyebrows.

Each flying sword was mixed with extremely terrifying power and struck at Ye Ping like a bolt of lightning.

“Torch Dragon Ancient Seal.”

In just an instant, Ye Ping directly executed the Torch Dragon Ancient Seal and the surging Dharmic powers immediately started operating while an invisible force appeared on Ye Ping's back, allowing him to resist the flying sword.

Pfft.

Even if Ye Ping had powerful Dharmic powers, he was facing a powerhouse in the late-stage Golden Core realm. There were at least five levels between the two.

For ordinary cultivators, realms were worlds apart, and although Ye Ping could defeat a cultivator in the perfected Foundation Establishment realm, it was still painstaking for him to defeat a Golden Core realm cultivator.

Besides, he was a cultivator in the late-stage Golden Core realm.

Most importantly, his flying sword was not a Dharma artifact. All the 36 flying swords were supreme-grade spirit artifacts that were being controlled by a Golden Core realm powerhouse.

In fact, the main thing was that Wang Minghao's master was not an ordinary Golden Core realm cultivator and belonged to the strongest batch of cultivators.

Otherwise, it would take a lot of effort.

At this moment, the flying sword directly pierced the Torch Dragon's Dharmic powers and then into Ye Ping's back.

At this moment, the pain overwhelmed Ye Ping, making him frown even harder.

However, at this moment, Ye Ping activated 36 Immortal Apertures and his terrifying Dharmic powers forced the 36 flying swords away.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

After the flying swords were shaken away, Ye Ping felt an inexplicable pressure.

That was the difference in realm and the two could not be compared to each other at all. The only way to get out of the predicament was to fight and kill in close combat.

However, the problem was the other party was a Dao cultivator and wasn't a fool. He knew that his physical body was strong, so how could he let him get close?

Hence, if he couldn't think of a solution, he might really die there.

Boom!

The flying swords attacked again, but this time, there were no 36 Sword Qi but 108 of them. Wang Minghao's master did not want to waste time, and sacrificed 108 flying swords in one go, all for the sake of wiping Ye Ping out.

“Old blockhead.”

Feeling the Sword Qi behind him, Ye Ping couldn't help but curse in his heart.

‘He's outright cheating. Not only is he hitting me, an early-stage Foundation Establishment realm cultivator even though he's in the late-stage Golden Core realm. He even used 108 supreme-grade flying swords. How shameless.'

Boom!

The flying swords came crashing over and Ye Ping did not choose to escape. Instead, he turned around and opened the Torch Dragon Immortal Seal. He opened his Ancient True Dragon Fist Technique and blasted the flying swords over.

However, there were too many flying swords and the power was increasing too. Ye Ping could sense an immense pressure.

Boom!

In the end, the Blood and Qi Furnace behind Ye Ping hovered above his head and the power of Qi and Blood turned into a waterfall that came crashing down, stopping the attacks of the flying sword.

Sounds of a dragon roaring came from the furnace, as if it was breeding a True Dragon.

Not far away, Ye Ping blasted his golden fist into the void, each punch as tyrannical as thunderbolt.

Unfortunately, the other party was too weak. To be more precise, the difference between the two was too big and not to mention that Ye Ping had reached the Golden Core realm. Even if Ye Ping broke through to the mid-stage Golden Core realm, he wouldn't be so passive.

The Tenth Princess of the Great Xia Dynasty behind Ye Ping also seemed shocked as she looked shocked.

“Little friend, stop resisting. Hand the Tenth Princess over and we can forget about the feud between us.”

At this moment, Wang Minghao's master spoke up again. He had been treating Wang Minghao's wounds previously and was too tied up. Once he left, Wang Minghao would definitely die.

Ye Ping's punch was just right, a little stronger and Wang Minghao would be killed on the spot. If it was a little lighter, Wang Minghao might persist on for a while.

Now, Wang Minghao's veins and tendons were surging while his organs moved and his Qi and Blood rolled. Once he lost control, he would immediately die.

“Senior, are you treating me like a three-year-old child?”

Ye Ping responded to the attack of the flying sword.

“No, don't get the wrong idea. I did want to kill you in the past.”

“However, things are different now. You managed to condense the Blood and Qi Furnace at such a young age and you're very strong too. I have high hopes for you.”

“I can take you as my disciple, as long as you hand over the Tenth Princess. When the time comes, you will worship me as your master. Once I get the reward, we'll split it between us. How does that sound?”

He tried to tempt Ye Ping.

However, in the next moment, the Tenth Princess of the Great Xia Dynasty immediately spoke up.

“Fellow Daoist, don't believe his bullshit, he's stalling for time.”

The Tenth Princess was afraid that Ye Ping would fall for it.

Ye Ping did not answer the Tenth Princess but looked at her.

“Thank you, Senior, but I already have a master, and I don't want to get involved in your affairs. I'm just passing by here. Stop attacking and let me walk for a while. I'll put her down to let you catch her after some time, alright?”

Ye Ping definitely didn't believe him, but he had no choice but to talk nonsense with him now.

“Hah!”

The other party chuckled but did not continue to speak. It was obvious that he wanted Ye Ping to drop the idea and stop dreaming.

In an instant, Ye Ping was awkward.

The situation was too troublesome and Ye Ping had been getting restrained. He couldn't leave either. If he continued to wait here for Wang Minghao's injuries to stabilize, he would be doomed.

Thinking about it, Ye Ping could not help but be depressed again.

‘In the future, I won't use this Teleportation Array anymore. What a jinx, I get into trouble whenever I use it.'

Ye Ping was upset.

‘Wait…'

‘Array formation!'

However, Ye Ping suddenly thought of a solution.

‘Array formation!'

Yes, array formation.

Escaping was basically impossible, and if the other party hadn't been delayed by Wang Minghao, he wouldn't have the chance to retaliate at all.

However, even if the other party was delayed, he would be able to restrain him using the Dharmic Dao flying sword.

If he really wanted to escape, the only way would be to rely on the Teleportation Array.

However, it would take some time for the Teleportation Array to be set up. Once he set it up, he'd probably be able to sense it.

It was troublesome.

‘Wait…'

There was a solution too.

In an instant, Ye Ping thought of a possibility. According to Wang Zhuoyu's array formation insights, Ye Ping remembered a paragraph that specifically mentioned a solution for the instant set up of an array formation.

That was, to enter the formation with one's heart.

Thinking of this, Ye Ping also had nothing to hesitate about. If he didn't try, he'd definitely die. If he tried, there might be a way out.

In the blink of an eye, Ye Ping gritted his teeth, took out dozens of superior-grade Spirit Stones, and then roared into the sky.

“Third Senior Brother, save me.”

“Teleportation Array.”

Ye Ping's voice sounded again.

That made the Tenth Princess of the Great Xia Dynasty a little confused about what Ye Ping was trying to do.

However, in the next moment, a scene that shocked her even more appeared.

Right after Ye Ping spoke, a Teleportation Pool appeared in front of them.

They then entered it.

‘This is impossible!'

Almost at the same moment, the man in the black robe and bamboo hat roared.

His eyes were full of disbelief.
